- Original

A very fun house number with a xylophone-hook and orchestral strings on top of the usual FCB forest of creaks, squeaks, and crunches. Every sound is where they should be, not one bit in the wrong place - production is as ever.

- Audio Soul Project remix

ASP doesn't need an introduction as he's been a production wizz for years with a great number of records released on a load of various labels. While sticking rather close to the original, ASP takes his mix towards a more driving direction and a drier edge of tech-house. More for the floor.

- Kodek remix

Kodek certainly is a name to watch in the future. His beautifully crafted downtempo 'Computer Made Love Song' featured one of the 'Cup of Chi' comps earlier on with strong feedback from all over the place. It's tech-house this time, built around a heavily driving bassline that either rips or gently twists your head off, dependant on the mood you're in. Peak-time business.

- Huncut Sample Pack

Just a pack of samples of Huncut Hacuka, for those who want to work out their own version of the tune.

You can find the tunes at Beatport (for 4 weeks exclusive, then all other places).

Artits: Fine Cut Bodies + Chris Carter
Title: Fiddlesticks
Genre: Minimal / BreakBeat / TechHouse
Label: Chi Recordings
CatNum: CHI017

The second collaboration by Chris and Kevin finally sees the light on Chi. A year ago they dropped the really well received chicken-techno number "Frogmarch", but this time they broke the rhythm, turned up the bass, spiced it up with a SID arpeggio and here we are: "Fiddlesticks" was born. This release also feature 2 great producers who blended the original into a twisted minimal (Habersham) and a silly techHouse version (Modul). And if it's not enough, there is FCB's house mix also to please the 4p4 lovers! Early support and nice words come from Rob Mello, Dark Globe, Luke Solomon, Jeff Samuel, Elite Force, Jerome Pacman, Mike Monday, Murray Richardson, Andrea Lai, Laurent Garnier, Someone Else, Tom Baker, Dan Mangan, Kriece, Taucher, Volum, Kevin Beber, Cosmic Groove Transmission, Kraymon, Kilowatts, Dopamine, Cut La Roc, Matt Flores, etc... more to come....
